After an update of Firefox, I lost all my tabs (not bookmarks). I searched all the help info and found nothing that said how to replace tabs only bookmarks. Please help, this is most frustrating!

If those tabs aren't in History > Recently Closed Tabs or Windows then they are probably lost.

You can try to search them in the History if you haven't bookmarked them.

Using the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" setting is a more reliable way to restore session data.
